“Pada dasarnya, manusia kan mencintai dirinya sendiri. Tahu mitos soal 'kalau mukanya mirip berarti jodoh', dan suami-istri biasanya berwajah mirip? Mitos itu cuma cara masyarakat untuk berkilah dari pengakuan bahwa mereka mencintai dirinya sendiri, atau itu dorongan dari alam bawah sadar mereka. Aku rasa, itu terjadi karena setiap orang terlalu mencintai dirinya sendiri. Makanya dia bakal merasa cocok sama orang lain yang serupa sama dia. Wajahnya serupa, kelakuannya serupa—semua mengacu pada dirinya sendiri.”

“Pada keadaan apa kita tahu yang kita boleh percaya kepada sesuatu? Seperti jam yang tergantung di dinding, kita letakkan kepercayaan kita kepadanya untuk membuat penentuan dalam hidup kita. Kita tidak perlu pandang keluar tingkap untuk tahu siang atau malamnya langit, kita juga tidak perlu risau akan mula atau akhirnya masa pada waktu peperiksaan. Selagi kita lihat jarum saatnya berdetak, pada keadaan itu kita percaya kepada jam. Lalu pada keadaan apa yang membuat kita percaya kepada manusia?”

“Pada mulanya hanya ada dua entitas. yaitu X dan Y. Keduanya adalah rekan yang berbeda total walaupun saling mengakui satu sama lain. X selalu berkata bahwa dirinyalah ‘isi’ dan rekannya Y adalah ‘hampa’. Sebaliknya Y juga berkata bahwa dirinyalah ‘isi’ dan rekannya X adalah ‘hampa’. Mereka saling meng-klaim bahwa dirinyalah ‘isi’ dan rekannya adalah ‘hampa’. Tak satupun dari mereka yang bersedia untuk disebut ‘hampa’. Mereka terus berargumentasi dan akhirnya sadar bahwa sebenarnya tidak ada yang bisa mereka jadikan sebagai acuan untuk menetapkan siapa sebenarnya yang ‘isi’ dan siapa sebenarnya yang ‘hampa’. Sebab yang ada cuma mereka berdua saja, X dan Y.”

“Pada saat hati kita tersihir dengan perasaan, kita hanya nampak apa yang perasaan kita mahu lihat. Adakah kita kejam jika masih berdendam? Adakah kita perlu melepaskan hanya kerana mereka menyesal? Adakah semuanya akan pulih dengan hanya memaafkan? Memang dunia tidak akan berputar balik ke belekang jika kita memaafkan. Disebabkan ia takkan berputar baliklah kita harus melepaskan dan terus pandang ke depan. Adakah semuanya akan pulih dengan hanya memaafkan? Jawapannya tidak. Semuanya tidak akan pulih hanya dengan memaafkan. Tetapi hati manusia pulih. Hatinya pulih.”

“Padişah Vahdettin'in yarattığı iç savaş, milli hareketi çepeçevre saracak bir şekilde çıkarılmıştır. Aznavur isyanı, Biga, Gönen ve Karacabey civarını kaplamış, Adapazarı, Düzce, Bolu ayaklanmaları Ankara Beypazarı'na kadar yayılmış, Konya'da Delibaş Mehmet İsyanı ve Yozgat' ta Çapanoğlu isyanı Ankara'yı tehdit etmeye başlamıştır. Görüldüğü gibi milli hareketin merkezi Anakara dört bir yandan isyancılarla kuşatılmıştır. Sayfa:222”

“Padmasree Warrior, Cisco's chief technology officer, was asked by The Huffington Post, "What's the most important lesson you've learned from a mistake you've made in the past?" "I said no to a lot of opportunities when I was just starting out because I thought, 'That's not what my degree is in' or 'I don't know about that domain.' In retrospect, at a certain point it's your ability to learn quickly and contribute quickly that matters. One of the things I tell people these days is that there is no perfect fit when you're looking for the next big thing to do. You have to take opportunities and make an opportunity fit for you, rather than the other way around. The ability to learn is the most important quality a leader can have.”

“Padmé,” he murmured, “oh, Padmé, I’m so sorry. Forget I said anything. None of that matters now. I’ll be gone from the Order soon—because I will not let you go away to have our baby in some alien place. I will not let you face my dream alone. I will be there for you, Padmé. Always. No matter what.”

“Padre Crittle: … we heard on a radio jettisoned by one of the forestry men, the broadcast of Sir Reginald Dormal-Smith, the Governor of Burma. Speaking from Delhi he told the world just how well everything had been organized and how magnificently everyone had stuck to their posts. We who were in the middle of the chaos were “not amused” and loud were the jeers with which his speech was greeted: officers and civilians alike united in making caustic comments on British propaganda …”

“Padre Crittle: … While resting on the side of the road I saw Amah Singh, one of the oldest Sikh inhabitants of Kamaing. He was walking very slowly with the aid of a bamboo. When he saw me he stopped and begged for something to eat. “Only half a biscuit, Sahib, only half a biscuit.” I am sure that he did not believe me when I told him I hadn’t got half a biscuit in the world …”

“Padre nuestro, padre ambiguo de los milagros eternos que admiramos los modernos por tu gran prestigio antiguo. La ninfa junto a la fuente pasa y tiene en su blancura lo que inspira, lo que dura, lo que aroma y lo que abrasa. Pues al ver la viva flor o la estatua que se mueve, hecha de rosa y de nieve, nos toma el alma el amor. Pan nuestro que estás en la tierra, porque el universo se asombre, glorificado sea tu nombre por todo lo que en él se encierra. Vuélvanos tu reino de fiesta en que tú aparezcas y cantes con los tropeles de bacantes mancillando la floresta. Hunde siempre violento y vivo y por tus ímpetus agrestes, en el cielo cuernos celestes y en la tierra patas de chivo. Danos ritmo, medida y pauta al amor de tu melodía, y que haya al amor de tu flauta amor nuestro de cada día. Deudas que el alma amando trunca están en tu disposición, y no le concedas perdón a aquel que no haya amado nunca.”

“Pads Leaking If students are having trouble with notes not speaking, especially as they go down the horn, chances are they have one or more leaky pads. A leak light will confirm this, and the work I’m going to describe here really can’t be done without a leak light. If one side of the pad is sealing and the other side is leaking, the key is slightly bent. First check the bases of the posts these keys are connected to, making sure there are no bends or dents causing the keys to be out of alignment. I also like to take the neckpiece off and look down the inside wall of the body. If the horn has been dropped or knocked off a chair, there may not be visible dents, but by looking down the inside you may see that the body is bending to one side or the other. In either case, the horn will need to be sent to a qualified repairman for some major work. If no damage is visible, you can adjust the key back to being flat with a couple of simple tools.”

“Paeng leans back and rests his hand flat on the table. “Vince.” Blushing, he snaps at his friend. “I dropped the bra on the wet tarp and I guess I must have accidentally gotten paint on it and touched it to my cheek, okay?” Paeng is silent as Vince sighs. “I didn’t mean to take my upset out on you, sorry.” “No big. So, you fondled it. Was it good for you?” Paeng’s eyes glitter, making Vince’s anxiety flare. “I couldn’t help myself! The girl’s smoking hot and yet she doesn’t appear to own trashy underwear.” He feels all dreamy just thinking about it. “It’s simple and soft . . . it felt so nice. She’s not like any of the girls I’ve met before. She’s direct, feisty and artistic and I bet she’s really smart. She’s nothing like the usual MOM Girl and she’s not even my type. But her underwear is beautiful. She doesn’t wear slutty underwear because she doesn’t put on airs, and oh, God, that’s so attractive. What I wouldn’t give to see—” Paeng face palms Vince. “Dude. You are waxing poetic about cotton underwear like my sisters wear when they get their periods. It’s just underwear. It is not the key to Dani’s psyche. You are making the kind of assumptions about her that lead to expensive rings, one point two kids, and minivans. You are in trouble.”
